VHA - Affordable Homes & Communities Resident Services VISTA

Virginia Housing Alliance’s (VHA) AmeriCorps VISTA project is a statewide intermediary project with 18 Host Sites, all of which work to expand affordable housing opportunities and/or end homelessness throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia. VHA’s VISTA project aims to develop viable communities by promoting integrated approaches that provide decent housing, suitable living environments, and expansive economic opportunities for low and moderate-income people. This listing is to fill the Host Site opening at Affordable Homes & Communities (AHC), located in Arlington, VA. Affordable Homes & Communities (AHC) develops affordable housing while helping residents of their communities thrive through Resident Services (RS). The RS cornerstones are Education and Youth Development, Economic Mobility, Community Building and Engagement, and Health and Wellness, and these focuses allow our residents to thrive. AHC seeks a motivated individual to serve as the RS VISTA and focus on data analysis, capturing resident feedback, spearheading resident-centric initiatives, and supporting implementation and adaptation of best practices in service delivery across AHC’s Resident Services (RS) four program areas. The VISTA member will work collaboratively designing training modules, developing data management plans, and designing quality assurance manuals and training models. A dedicated VISTA member will allow AHC to further upgrade systems and overall capacity to better implement best practices in fundraising, RS, and data analysis.
